That DEF would be AMAZING‼️ I LOVED staying home with my mom and watching funny, uncut, “real tv” and the greatest game shows EVER! This and $10,000 Pyramid were our faves👍
I've been watching reruns of this for the last three or four years, at least, and it never gets old. It was one of a kind. It all starts with Gene, the perfect host, and Brett and Charles and Richard. And all the great 'semi-regulars' like Fanny, Patty Deutsch, Betty, Patty Duke, Joyce Bulifant, Joanne Worley, Elaine Joyce, Marcia Wallace, Nipsey Russell, Gary Burghoff, Dick Martin, Joann Pflug, Orson Bean... A show like that can never be duplicated. I remember watching Match Game 73 when I got home from school in junior high, and still think of it with the 73 in the name because of that. Best game show ever, with Jeopardy number two, but for completely different reasons. For entertainment value Match Game stands alone. And quite often the contestants were very entertaining - you got quite a variety of personalities.
They were Absolutely Fantastic! Brett and Charles are totally insane. I was a middle school teacher and they act just like some of my kids sitting in the back of the classroom. Classic!
One moment I will never forget circa 1979. Charles was wearing a cowboy hat & talking like John Wayne & Gene says " don't get BUTCH with me" & Charles responds..."Don't Worry". Everyone erupted in laughter. No one had to say gay...it just was understood.
"Match Game" is pure joy! The greatest game show, the greatest host, and the greatest panelists in the history of television! Those people were, and are, VERY special to me.
Gene was very impeccibly dressed, my word, it meant a lot to him to be fashionable. Best host then and since. Plus, Gene was a good man. I was just a kid watching it then but looking at it now, I see it. I miss seeing well-dressed men in the workplace. Men and women could work together, tease each other, have fun like that and not be offended.
Every time I watch it on Buzzr it takes me back to coming home from school in the 70’s and watching it with my mom. A lot of the sexual innuendo was over my head. It just seemed so cool though to watch these celebrities unscripted, joking and having fun.
I LOVED this show Growing up in the 70's and 80's AND have watched replays religiously on GSN EVERY day, 2 shows at 12 and 12:30 since the pandemic and I have been forced to work from home. I record them on my DVR if I work through the lunch hour. GSN, PLEASE never take this show off the air...
I watched #MatchGame with my Grandparents every weekday in the 70's !! When I get a chance to watch it now......I feel like they are sitting beside me...….
I remember my Mom laughing so hard watching Match Game. When it premiered on CBS the 2nd time in 1973, I was 5 years old, just starting kindergarten and I learned a lot about something I absolutely love doing and enjoy with women. Innuendo! Learned all about it from watching. I asked my Mom, why does it always seem like these questions have answers that are right, but means something different? Mom said, boy....I don't know how you caught on? You are so smart! I'm going to tell you and "carefully" explain it to you.....after Match Game goes off. She told me all about innuendo, why it is, how to use it to present something to someone or group. Also how women like it and how it adds fun and deep thought to any loving relationship. The 70's....times "teenage" years. 😀
@Mark Thomas Richard dawson used be great at the match game, family feud , he used to like to kiss the pretty woman, I hear he met his wife on the show
greenrefrigerator I’m 52. And lived only a block and around the corner from my grade school. My whole goal was to get home get the tv turned on quick enough to warm up use the bathroom wash my hands and grab my snack all before the stars were introduced. I always felt so proud if I got there in time to see the first guy. I would run if I was still in the kitchen when the theme song started to play.
Match Game was a show where anything, absolutely anything could happen. You tune in and Charles might FLY into the studio, Carol Burnett would invade the set, or a contestant might bend over in a two-short skirt. That random factor, the anticipation of "what could possibly happen this week?" was a big part of the magic.
Gene was the last true "master of ceremonies". They dont have hosts like this anymore. Even when the question box broke he would beat it up and yank on it to get the questions lmao this show is a fever dream!
Alexei Cogan 1,000,000,000% agreed with you they are so great people and I wish they were still alive :( but they were very talented people and I love them and this show so much
I watched about 2 minutes of the reboot and was horrified. They've rebooted Match Game and $100,000 Pyramid. Both reboots are mere shells of the originals. They're simply bad products.
@@paulapayne7940 The reboot is awful. If they asked that Ronald McDonald question in the reboot they would just answer penis. That isn't funny to just say the obvious answer that everyone is thinking. Saying quarter pounder is much funnier.
I NEVER get tired watching these old MATCH GAME reruns they were the BEST R.I.P to: GENE RAYBURN BRETT SOMMERS CHARLES NELSON RILEY ....and RICHARD DAWSON.
I always liked Patti Deutsch. She had the cutest voice (she worked a lot in voiceover), and beautiful hair. She married once, had 3 children, and remained married until her death. This was a fun, silly show!
I crushed on her...loved her gorgeous red hair, cute voice, beautiful curves, and (strangely enough) her penmanship on the answer cards. :) I sadly never got to meet her, but love being able to watch her on Buzzr.
@@billman6364 He was also a panelist on Match Game too. It was always funny when A Dumb Donald question popped. His reactions to them were always hysterical.
Brett was such an annoying pain-in-the ass & NEVER shut that piehole of hers. Never. She always had 2 b the center of attention. And the way she looked at Gene with that teenage girl look & tellin him how she wanted 2 go 2 Encinitas hotel. She sounded like such a FOOL. Even though it was a joke ?? I don’t think on her part.
I grew up in the 60s and we watched the Match game every weekday. The characters were the first tv stars that I thought seemed like real people and so funny.
Exactly what the modern versions haven't figured out. Innuendo is fun and much funnier than vulgarity. In the 70's they'd ask leading questions that would make people think something dirty, but the celebs had to work around not being able to give the dirty answer. These days they allow the dirty answer and it just isn't nearly as funny.
So true, but you could tell the panelists were thinking about the possibility of writing an off color answer, when they would laugh or get a funny look on their face. But let's not forget, hearing the word "boobs" on TV in the 1970s was still a bit shocking... Especially to the older adults who were watching.
Ms. Brett was such a wonderful celebrity for Match Game, along with Charles Nelson Reilly! Thank you so much for your great time for this astounding game !!
B. Stanley, The person in the last spot was directed to do that; so really not the person's choice. The person in the 4th spot was known as the "dummy" spot; usually reserved for pretty actresses to be ditzy. Richard was to hopefully get it right. The 6th spot was to end the round being funny. The panelist and Gene explain that in another documentary that's here on you tube. Anyone just had to have watched the show to realize the line up, though.
Very true, the cellphone hadn't made its debut to disrupt humanity as it has done now, so humanity lived as was designed, joyous, funny and happy to interact with one another face to face, not behind glass screens, share emotion by touch, not emoji... 46 years later, society has frayed so much, the America depicted here no longer exists.
Bring me back to the 70's when people weren't brain washed to be offended like they are today. When the women enjoyed the attention and gave it also. There isn't any harm to flirting fun.
@@jpolar394 It's not pussification, it's that the bar swung the other way but will eventually settle in the middle. For years women, minorities, etc, had to put up with so much shit (still do) and now there is pushback from all the years of having to put up with it.
@@RandomPlayIist crap has, is & will ALWAYS happen behind the scenes it's just a matter of who gets caught or not; in this case we're talking in FRONT of the camera two very different things
Gene Rayburn was the best game show host of all time. Richard Dawson a close second. All the rest are way behind. He had a presence and timing unlike anyone else.
Match Game is on several times a day on the Game Show Network, it's as if they are all frozen in time. The only one I can think of who is still alive from the original Match Game is Betty White.
Fannie still writes too. I wasn't old enough to remember the match game, but I remember Fannie Flagg wrote Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe (the book), which is one of my favorite movies.
I miss you as well, Brett. You, Charles, Richard, Betty White. I'm more able to watch all these re-runs now that my children and grandchildren are grown & gone. Moved away. Busy with their own lives. Now, I can really enjoy the show. I even miss Gene. Him and his funny sarcasm. If one can't take a joke, they shouldn't be on the Match Game. Because Gene was sure to embarrass someone. But, that was Gene. Got to love him, as well as you, and all the others. Can't remember all the other stars names right now, but you all had some great stars on your show. The only other game show I've really ever watched faithfully was " the kissing bandit' Richard Dawson, on Family Fued. He, like you, and Betty White, and Charles, had BIG hearts. As did some of the other stars.
Brett Somers is well before my time, but I love wathcing game show fails and she's popped on a few times and is always funny. This lady would still thrive if she were alive in today's world.
Gene was very patient with brett trying very hard to take over the show. He did get annoyed with her a few times and told her that it was his show. He or the producers must have been friends with Jack Klugman who got her on the show
This show had fun, creativity and they knew how to laugh with and at each other! You don't see anything like this on TV anymore! I'm wondering who the 9 morons who gave this thumbs down were thinking (if at ALL!) You saw it was Brett, Gene, Charles and the others, you knew you were gonna laugh and you gave thumbs down? NO points for you people!
@stromada1 There was and maybe is a LOT of sexual harassment and sexual imposition going on. Just because some whining attention-seekers joined in doesn't mean the whole movement is false. Let's not throw the baby out with the bath water.
@stromada1 Oh, the fun I'm sure they had, then, watching Dawson and the female contestants on "Family Feud." Bet there wasn't one set of white knuckles in THAT bunch, ho ho ho.
I swear that this show was just for entertainment. Dawson was the most consistent celebrity with matching answers. Reiley wasn't too far off but, he had his bad days. Somers got to the point where she didn't give a damn about helping the contestants win any money. She would give a bad answer using up to four cards to make her look like she's desperate to be funny. It got to the point that I couldn't stand her.The only reason that she landed on the show was due to Jack Klugman,the actor that could only express one emotion, anger, talked the producer into putting her on the show! The worst panelists would always occupy seats one , four, and six. These, also, would be actors or comedians that cared more about being glib than helping the contestants win any money. Before anyone says, why did you watch it, because my wife liked the show and I wanted to be with her!
@@oldiesgeek454 She didn't have to. The only sport that we both like is bowling. In fact, after over 42 years of marriage, the only thing that she didn't care for was ,"The Walking Dead". She would watch something else while I watched it until they started killing each other instead of walkers. That's when I quit watching. If I want to see man's inhumanity to man, I'll watch the evening news.
Favorite game show as a young girl growing up in the 70s I loved the quirky celeb guest panelist such as charles nelson Reilly,Brett Somers,Richard dawson🎉
I wanna go back again and live in a 20 year eternal loop from 1970 - 1990. Oh, and of course be a guest player on Match Game at least once a year.
I'm going with you.
Same here I love to go
Let's go!!

Indeed!
I love the way Gene and Brett had fun with each other at the Motel 6 in Encino! 😊
They were Absolutely Fantastic! Brett and Charles are totally insane. I was a middle school teacher and they act just like some of my kids sitting in the back of the classroom. Classic!

I LOVE BUZZR!
Buzzr is the best!
Does anyone also watch the show on Game Show Network?
@@ATLienForLife I used to when it was on GSN at a reasonable time. Now, it's all about Buzzr.
I watch this show on the buzzr channel. It's so much fun and funny. Love Gene Rayburn he was a fantastic host.
If you have Amazon Prime Video, you can watch many episodes without the "old people product" commercials.
He was indeed! :)
A low I.Q. missing link lech .
@@maxroyle6750 You can't possibly be referring to Gene Rayburn as Low IQ.
Gene would definitely be on the Mount Rushmore of Game Show Hosts
Brett , Charles , Richard and Gene !! What a great time watching!! God bless you all.
They should do an interview with Betty White, she worked with everyone on this show. She must have had a ball. R.I.P. to all we've lost.
Yes. Sadly Betty White passed in December 2021. 💘 Love Match Game.
Thx for putting the jinx on Betty White. You killed her.
Did you see this interview ? This is a short clip but she talks about MG at 2:50.

"classy" ? i saw a few METOO moments.
She’s so obviously looking to her right at the cue cards. But it’s great to hear her recollections of the Match Game.
Patti rarely gave a matching answer because she was so preoccupied with trying to give a goofy one to amuse herself.

I have always loved watching Match Game.
Odd that $62.50 was the fee paid to anyone accidentally appearing on camera as 62.50 a week was Ralph Kramden's salary.
Brett and Charles should have gone on to have their own talkshow as cohosts. It would've been a hit.
Gene was 6’1”, so Ira must have been 6’6”.
Charles was 6'-2". With his toupee he must have been at least 6'-4"
That was glorious! 🤣👍
You got any more videos like this?
This show had fun, creativity and they knew how to laugh with and at each other! You don't see anything like this on TV anymore! I'm wondering who the 9 morons who gave this thumbs down were thinking (if at ALL!) You saw it was Brett, Gene, Charles and the others, you knew you were gonna laugh and you gave thumbs down? NO points for you people!
@stromada1 There was and maybe is a LOT of sexual harassment and sexual imposition going on. Just because some whining attention-seekers joined in doesn't mean the whole movement is false. Let's not throw the baby out with the bath water.
Nope the 9 morons were not thinking at all
I love the show I watch it every blank.
@stromada1 Oh, the fun I'm sure they had, then, watching Dawson and the female contestants on "Family Feud." Bet there wasn't one set of white knuckles in THAT bunch, ho ho ho.
Too many sanitized sensitive idiots today, that's why MATCH GAME still holds up !😁✌
Dawson was the only one who couldn't laugh at himself
I swear that this show was just for entertainment. Dawson was the most consistent celebrity with matching answers. Reiley wasn't too far off but, he had his bad days. Somers got to the point where she didn't give a damn about helping the contestants win any money. She would give a bad answer using up to four cards to make her look like she's desperate to be funny. It got to the point that I couldn't stand her.The only reason that she landed on the show was due to Jack Klugman,the actor that could only express one emotion, anger, talked the producer into putting her on the show!
The worst panelists would always occupy seats one , four, and six. These, also, would be actors or comedians that cared more about being glib than helping the contestants win any money. Before anyone says, why did you watch it, because my wife liked the show and I wanted to be with her!
Did she reciprocate by watching sports with you? 😊
@@oldiesgeek454 She didn't have to. The only sport that we both like is bowling. In fact, after over 42 years of marriage, the only thing that she didn't care for was ,"The Walking Dead". She would watch something else while I watched it until they started killing each other instead of walkers. That's when I quit watching. If I want to see man's inhumanity to man, I'll watch the evening news.
@@fiddlefaddle1 lol... I used to watch the old PBA bowling in the 1970s on Saturday afternoons.
@@oldiesgeek454 the only time I ever saw bowling on TV was on ABC's Wide World of Sports the thrill of Agony and the victory of defeat
Favorite game show as a young girl growing up in the 70s I loved the quirky celeb guest panelist such as charles nelson Reilly,Brett Somers,Richard dawson🎉
